Awesome news. Glad he worked so hard to get back on the court.
Fingers crossed he fully heals and doesn't reinjure that shoulder.

Something the Digger and I can agree on.
I think if you knew me personally, we would agree on most things.
Sometimes things don't read the way they were meant.
Mark Pope gives update on Lamont Butler, who has returned to non-contact practice
Butler has missed the previous games dealing with an injury, and Kentucky urgently needs their star guard back.

i would like to see Owen pass a little more on his drives too.
Lol...I know. Bad eyes, fat fingers, not proof reading and all! Maybe need to apply for defensive coach.
Back to Lamont Butler.... the guys a competitor and wants to win. He throws his body in to try and get points and give his team energy. He wants to bring the fire. He has Oweh heat without the physique. Trouble is he breaks himself up. In some form I think we need him to be facilitator rather than scorer.
This is my hope.
South Carolina is a must win. But they are going to try the Texas AM football strategy. We don’t need Butler re-injuring anything bc he’s being intentionally tackled
Have him suited up and ready for the second half if it’s a tight game. If we are up 10points in the second half then don’t play him
I appreciate you telling me how to fan but I feel how I feel and there is hate that I feel here for Calipari. What he did to our program the last 4 years I won’t ever forgive or get over it. No matter how other fans tell me how I have to be a fan.
To present day Pope says he knows the assignment. Well his biggest assignment to date was to beat the Cal head to head and he failed miserably. I mean favored by double digits and we lose by double digits. This is to a coach that can’t even coach to top it all off.
Next if Pope says his job is to hang banners then he better hang banners. His expectations and my expectations both line up pretty even on this.
Our last coach first took over and said he was going to pass UCLA and he lied through his teeth and he never ever got close. He only won 1 championship with all that talent talk about a waste of a coach , waste of talent, and waste of all that money that UK paid that goon!
I mean all these coaches come here and sprout off at the mouth about doing this and that then they better be able to this and that. I mean sitting in 10th place in the SEC just isn’t going to be able to accomplish the goals needed to be accomplished at a school like UK. I like Pope I just think this job is too big for Pope!
Wasted life and naive comments man. UK has been participating in basketball for over a hundred years. We have 8 championships. I have been a fan forever and I so much want another. They do not come along that often. Rupp had four during a time that only a few schools emphasized basketball. The SEC was a football conference and most of our schools didn't actively push basketball until years after UK. Rupp was the difference in UK and other schools.
I am dedinitely giving Pope a chance. At the same time I am ashamed and embarrassed by so many of the posts I see on this board. About Pope, about a couple of our players and those still wanting to bash Cal. Grow the **** up.
Finally, Cal is a good coach. Recognized nation wide as such. Hall of Fame coach. You and a bunch of haters on this board saying otherwise doesn't change the fact.I agree wholeheartedly that It was time for him to go. He did. Good luck Cal. We move on. Hopefully in a positive manner without all of the insanity.
I just want a 100% healthy Butler back.
The “not 100%” Butler that played against Vandy will only hurt us, as he did in that game.
If he is still hurt, keep him on the bench.
